Todd Lipcon commented on KUDU-1836:
-----------------------------------
BTW should note the above numbers came from running the whole cfile through
'lzop' and 'gzip', not actually using the cfile compression code. So, we might
see a bit less good numbers when we're constrained to compressing a block at a
time, but I'm still hopeful it would be a substantial win.

> deltafiles are currently not compressed. This can be somewhat problematic for
> workloads that are heavy on updates -- the deltafiles can be much larger than
> the underlying data in many cases, especially if the user has a dataset which
> is highly column-compressible. We should consider enabling LZ compression of
> deltafiles by default.
